A unique entertainment will be provided for the Summer School on Monday evening, July 31, when the Jitney Players camp in the Yard in front of Widener to give Bernard Shaw's "Arms and the Man." The stage truck forms the little theatre and the truck drivers, mechanics, wardrobe mistresses, and canvas men, serve as actors and actresses. For ten years this versatile troupe has been travelling every summer playing for audiences ranging from professors to cowboys.
Tickets will go on sale at the Summer School Office in Sever Hall on Wednesday July 26. Admission is fifty cents. In case of inclement weather the stage in Sanders Theatre will be used.
Students in the summer school who have had little chance to see Shaw will enjoy this selection in which the Irishman arrays his wit against war and heroics, and points out that gold braid does not change human nature. When Captain Bluntschil climbs into the heroine's boudoir he does so over the hood of the truck which at night is effectively disguised.
